96.5°E Express-103

  • I think Express 103 became operational at 96.5E;all transponders have been moved from Express-AM33(this section).
    Unexpectedly good signal if I take into account that before I did not catch any transponder in the Ku band in my area :73:

  • Hi Feci01,


    Because there is some doubt about the reception of Express-103,I ask feci01 also to check 96.5E to confirm or otherwise the reception of this satellite.I still have no confirmation from any other dxers or feedhunters.

    Anyway is the situation,I'm glad to catch for the first time (any)Express at 96.5E in the Ku-band in good conditions,above any expectations.I hope you get it,too.

    And I have another reason to believe that the Express-103 is operational,namely,as usual,the transfer of transponders from one satellite to another is done at night hours. Or I found transponders at 2.00 a.m.

    Regards :3:


    added:checked the signal now at 96.5E:

    Express-103 at 96.5°E must have taken over all services of Express-AM33.

    Because according latest TLE, Express-AM33 is moving 1.0°W/day, near 94.5°E now.

    I didn't find 11082 V. Looks like it left the satellite?

    Here's what I found at this time at 96.5E with Crazyscan and IQmonitor.

  • I will post here these transponders whose streams I still can't determine because I received them at the limit.


    For hvdh :3:,

    I'm not sure if 12509 V is from 96.5E, because Express-103, as far as I know, does not use high-band. It may well be from one of the ChinaSats in the vicinity. That's why I ask HVDH to tell me what would be the correct position of this transponder.

    On the other hand, I want to know if your site(Geostationary satellites...) is still active?

    12519 V,2860,4/5,32APSK-new

    Hi Satesco, 97.9°E Chinasat 11 has high band (12.25...12.75 GHz).

    But Express-103 may also have high band, though probably not with just 20 Ku transponders.

    My site changed URL over a year ago, you can find it here in the top menu "Satellites lists".

  • Thanks, hvdh, for the reply. Probably this transponder is at 96.5E, because at 97.7E I got a strong signal also in Ku high-band on 12577 V but without parameters.

    If 11493 V,2600 had been active with the afghan packet, then I had a better chance to locate this transponder. But the afghan has left the Ku band and moved to the C band.

    I still have to monitor the position for a longer period to see what and how.

    Who knows, maybe feci01 can help us find out if 12509 V is at this position. His antenna gets close to 96.5E. Or better yet, I would ask him to call DX Bozoth to check the position.

  • However, not so far :11: I also interesting what happened at satellites after 110E...



    Last receivable satellite - 105E.

    Excellent :76:

    Can you check on the 96.5E upper band on Vertical polarity? I'm curious if you get transponders here, those in the spectrum below.

    Thanks.

  • Great, Stanislav. :73: Your reception confirms those transponders are at 96.5E.

    Apart from moonbase and feci01, who also picks up satellites much further east, you are the third dx on this forum who can help us identify positions and muxes we are unsure about.

    My antenna only reaches up to 100.5E, but because it is small and at only 0.2° elevation, my reception in Ku and C band is at the limit or not at all. The signal comes in waves.

    I await with interest your reports from satellites beyond 90.0E.

    My regards :3:

  • FYI: I´ve merged last three reports above in this toppic. :74:


  • I revisited position 96.5E to check if the upper band muxes are active, but more importantly, lock them if they exist.

    Although the signal seems better, only with IQmonitor was I able to lock them.

  • In conditions of low, rapidly wind-blown clouds, the signal on the dynamic spectrum jumped from 6 to 12 dB to the 1.05m antenna ... :37:



    We managed to "catch" :126: 5 transponders on the regular spectrum




    On the high resolution spectrum ( HR ) we managed to find three more DVB-S2x modulation transponders at the level of -8dB from the lock threshold.





    The average of them matches the parameters of the one registered by the respected satesco

  • I add two muxes with a low symbol rate in a high band, confirming what Strannik found:

    12507 V,893, and 12623 V,867 :3:

  • Today scan. Nothing new.

    ...

    Please scan the upper band as well. Some transponders are activated but I have only locked them with IQmonitor.

    On FlySat they are placed at 95.0E, which is wrong.

    Thanks :74:
